In 2018, Bitcoin appeared a lost cause to many people, but it seems that there is room for it to return stronger than ever. Recently, the BTC price has gone over $5,000, which is the first time since November 2018. Many investors start suggesting that Bitcoin (and cryptocurrencies in general) can perhaps return to their glory days. Could this be the beginning of a new upward swing or is it just a temporary tick in the price caused by something? Will this upward mode last for a long time and what can we expect from Bitcoin in the future?

BTC price is ready for the big time?

Bitcoin’s highest price in USD was approximately $20,000 back in December 2017. Since then, the price has been slowly declining. There were a couple of short upward swings in 2018, but that was a far cry from reaching the Q4 2017 price. However, starting in November 2018, the price of Bitcoin began to decline, hitting almost $3,000 in December 2018, and that was the lowest price since the primary upward mode.

What followed was a short period of stagnation that lasted for three months straight with the price hovering between $3,000 and $4,000 throughout December, January, and February. However, we were able to witness a gradual upward mode in March as the price broke the $4,000 ceiling by the end of the month.

As soon as we entered April, a miracle happened, and the price of Bitcoin suddenly jumped above $5,000. In other words, the price was up by almost $1,000 in just a couple of days, which is an upward tick we were not able to see for a very long time when it comes to cryptocurrencies.

Could this be a transition from bear market to bull market? Is this the change that all the traders have been waiting for a long time? The right answer is that nobody actually knows, but we can take a look at the possible reasons that made BTC surge back to $5,000.

It’s just how the market works

If you ask professional traders who have extensive knowledge in this area, they would claim that it is just how the market works. There are rules which apply to it that can, in a way, foreshadow the upcoming upward move.

Many professionals analyzed charts and concluded that Bitcoin closed above its moving average (MA) of fifty weeks for the first time in a year, and that it is a sign that the bulls could overtake the market.

Many agree that this could be also caused by purely technical changes such as the announcement of mining reward halving. The date when this is expected to happen was set to May 2020, which means that many professional investors started planning their strategies differently.

Is it the April Fools?

Some people believe that it was the April Fools that made the price of Bitcoin go up. Finance Magnates announced in the article that financial regulators finally decided to approve Bitcoin exchange-traded funds (ETFs).

Many people believed that this was true and started acting, thus affecting the price of BTC. However, experts think that this is highly unlikely. Yet, it is one of those things we will never be able to know as there is no way to determine the direct relationship between the news and the behavior on the market.

Speaking of ETFs, this could affect the market in the future when the financial regulators really decide to do something about them. In fact, many reports suggest that the next step taken in this direction should actually happen in May 2019. In other words, make sure to follow news about this as there is a possibility that the price of Bitcoin will be affected by the decision.

Other cryptocurrencies

Bitcoin is the most popular cryptocurrency in the world, and other cryptos are still profoundly affected by it. In other words, the change in Bitcoin’s price has been followed by the change in the price of other cryptos, and this is something that is happening again.

A single unit of Litecoin was approximately $60 on April 1, while three days later the price went up to $80. Last time Litecoin was above $80 was in July 2018, which means that things got even more exciting with this cryptocurrency.

The same upward tick exists in the ETH/USD pair as the price of a single Ether jumped by approximately $23 in the period between April 1 and 2. However, there was a slight decline visible on April 3 as the price dropped from $164 to approximately $161.

Bitcoin Cash is the closest ally to BTC (or is it Bitcoin’s mortal enemy?) and the graph depicting its price over time is pretty similar to Bitcoin’s graph, except for the fact that the numbers are smaller in general. Therefore, the change in price for BCH also happened in a couple of days. On April 1, the price was $167, and it jumped to $301 in just two days.

Conclusion

It is still very early to jump to conclusions as the upward mode has been on for just a couple of weeks. In fact, we wouldn’t even dare call it an upward mode yet. If this trend continues in the future, then it is definitely on.

On the other hand, it is difficult to predict the future. The professional investors and analysts could odd out the impossible, but they certainly cannot state what the most likely scenario is for Bitcoin and other cryptocurrencies. Naturally, we hope that the price will go up yet again, and a couple of months ahead of us are going to be very exciting for the crypto sphere. Nevertheless, crypto enthusiasts should not have high hopes as the price could move in any direction from this point on. All we could do is follow the latest news, and carefully observe the price changes in order to know when to act.

About the Author

As an expert on Bitcoin-related topics, I’ve found myself as a Journalist at Cex.io – cryptocurrency exchange. I’m working on articles related to blockchain security, bitcoin purchase guides or bitcoin regulations in different countries.

Regarding Utility tokens

A digital token of cryptocurrency that is issued in order to fund development of the cryptocurrency and that can be later used to purchase a good or service offered by the issuer of the cryptocurrency. (A definition from Merriam Webster)
Native tokens are integral to a decentralized blockchain. These tokens are bought, distributed, vested and represent the value of the future product or service and are ultimately traded on exchanges. These circulating tokens provide liquidity and represent the overall interest in the project through the crypto market-cap and the value at which these get traded on an exchange.

The Network Effect

The token issuers need to differentiate themselves and find a way to attain network effect. They need to arouse interest in their project and vision so as to increase the token circulation and thus the value. Like a single telephone is of no use (because who would you call until there is a network of telephone users each having a telephone?), similarly, the utility tokens derive their value through circulation, and their utility on a particular platform, thus called a utility token.
The bigger the network grows, the more utility in the token, and because the number of tokens is fixed and usually pre-mined. As the size of the network and transaction volumes within it grows, this will create demand for the tokens.
In order to encourage people to buy, use, keep, trade tokens there can be rewards, bonuses, sales, lotteries and airdrops to adopt the business model and use the services regularly. However, companies who use their tokens for airdrops and giveaways often lose value due to pump-and-dump plays of traders. Users can also be encouraged to use the tokens for payment and enjoy discounts when compared to transactions that do not use platform’s utility tokens. Token holders can also be given more privileges on the platform to be able to vote, or for expedited customer service, preferential rates etc.

Security vs Utility Tokens

Utility tokens are differentiated in terms of security, but often, the boundary remains blurry. Utility tokens have a business use-case. They may grow in price, if the demand for service or product increases. So buying such tokens of a project, that solves real problems of users and is constantly being developed and improved, may give great profit in future. Usually the tokens from a promising project that are bought in an initial sale tend to grow multi-fold and return future profits. One such example is utility token called PROB that is native to Probit.com crypto currency exchange platform.
Securitytokens, on the other hand, give their holders ownership rights in the company. A security token’s value is derived from a trade-able asset. They are like the IPO equivalent of the blockchain based ICO and can be utilized for investing, profits and voting rights over the blockchain frameworks.
The 1st utility token with a strong adoption was certainly Ethereum with the revolution operated by the Smart Contracts.

The PROB token

PROB is a payment utility token at ProBit Exchange, by which the trading fee, listing fee, etc. can be paid. Furthermore, PROB provides a number of utilities within the probit.com exchange platform. It is an ERC-20 standard utility token and its main usage is to pay for fees on the ProBit Exchange. ProBit will issue 200,000,000 PROB and the circulation will never increase above that.

ProBit protects PROB holders by NEVER using PROB for marketing or airdrops.

ProBit has implemented a tiered membership system for users, Premium/Standard depending on PROB holding by users. Premium users will qualify for enhanced fee discounts and referral bonus, listing voting rights, and priority access to new features and trading products. The PROB native token comes with following benefits:

Trading fee discounts

Voting rights for listing of new tokens

Increased referral bonus

Early access to new features (dependent on PROB holding)

After the launch of ProBit Exchange, PROB will enter the Trade Mining period. During this period, for qualified transactions at ProBit, PROB worth 80% of the trading fee based on the market price of the PROB will be mined and issued to the trader as a reward.
Unlike other exchanges that implemented a mining model to their exchange token, ProBit’s utilization of trade mining is meant to encourage active trading on the platform while providing users benefits in being early participants in the platform.
PROB held by investors in the Private Sale and the team are subject to vesting periods. PROB held by users in the Pre-Sale, Main Sale and Trade Mining periods are not subject to lock up or vesting period.

A Quick summary about PROB

Probit’s payment token (PROB) will serve as a native token for the backbone of the digital exchange with an upper cap of 200M tokens. The token holders can expect trading discounts, listing voting rights, higher slab in referral bonuses and early-access to newer features.
Based on the amount of PROB holding, users will be classified as STANDARD or PREMIUM. For the tech and ICO savvy, here is the Probit’s whitepaper. The PROB utility tokens would provide trading discounts (10% to 50%) on digital exchange‘s trading fee.

Membership Levels

There are 5 membership levels ranging from Standard, Sapphire, Emerald, Ruby & Diamond based on the amount of PROB tokens in your account each with different and higher accesses and privileges respectively. The discounts go all the way from 10% at the lowest level to 50% for Diamond membership. Here is a depiction for these levels:

The ProBit Grand Lottery

A great piece of news – ProBit, on the grand launch of its Digital Asset Exchange platform, has decided to run a Grand Lottery with as many as 10 winners per day (yes, you read that right, 10 e-v-e-r-y-day!). Each winner will receive 10 EOS (which is more than USD 50 at the time of writing). To top it off, the allocated lottery tickets also get randomly selected in a weekly draw, the winners for which would receive Samsung Galaxy S9 (a whooping USD 700 worth)!

Its raining money

The What, Where & How of tickets

Users must acquire tickets for their participating in the Probit’s lottery. While there are various methods to get the tickets, a simple registrationat the Probit’s intuitive website is a must. Depending on the user activity and involvement further more lottery tickets get allocated be it during registration, after referrals or through the bounty program. It is really raining tickets!

We’ve largely focused on how crypto-currencies have developed and the benefits and challenges they pose to society. But these new forms of money and ways of organizing commercial activity are not landing in a static, dormant society, as if human beings were just waiting to be woken by a new monetary idea. Society itself is changing, rapidly. Digital technology and online computing are at the center of this change, shifting how we form communities, social relationships, and business ties as every aspect of our lives becomes increasingly subject to the power of computing and network connections. Other factors are at work, too—the demographic shifts of an aging West, the unprecedented growth of a middle class in developing nations, the rise of terrorism in place of international conflict as the biggest security concern of our time, and the legacy of the 2008 financial crisis with its damage to people’s confidence in the traditional financial system. All of these create both opportunities and challenges for cryptocurrencies as they seek to impose some arguably even bigger changes on the societies to which they are being marketed.
In this confusing period there’s no shortage of people who claim to have figured it all out. Countless Article have appeared about the digital age and what it means, about the “end of work,” or the impact of debt left over from the financial crisis. This Article fits right into that genre. But it’s important to recognize that the linear thinking that has people recognizing one trend or another can often prevent them from recognizing a simultaneous contradictory trend. Below, we’ll explore some of these contradictions and look at what they mean for how societies grapple with the introduction of disruptive technologies such as cryptocurrency. We examine the tension it creates and the demands that the tensions be resolved through compromise and negotiation—typically through the intervention of government.
One of the biggest of these contradictions occurs along the continuum described in the previous chapter: that of decentralization versus centralization. Conflicting forces at either end of it are evident not only within the realm of cryptocurrencies but across society.
It can seem we live in an age of uber-centralization. The concentration of power and control that contributed to the financial meltdown of 2008, most importantly in the form of overly powerful too-big-to-fail banks, has by many measures only got more intense since that crisis. Although new regulations sought to curtail banks’ power, the solution preferred by policymakers to the economic and financial maelstrom was to double down on the old system of concentrated power. Central banks became even more important, pumping trillions of dollars’ worth of fiat currency into the global economy via their age-old partners, the banks. This may have staved off disaster by preventing all-out collapse in the financial system, but it played into the hands of big institutions and those who run them and left the little guy behind. Big public companies were able to borrow cheaply via the corporate bond market in this era of zero interest rates and so grew even bigger, as it created incentives for corporate mergers. However, small- and medium-size businesses found that their main source of finance—commercial banks—had become much tighter with credit, constraining their ability to grow and hire. Meanwhile, underlying demand continued to sag, which meant that the bigger companies also had no incentive to invest in new hires, not when they could exploit lower financial costs to maintain profit margins and turn to outsourcing and robots to take the place of local workers.
This big-is-better solution favored the few and held back the many. While the wealth of hedge fund managers and other elites surged thanks to the relentless stock market gains after the financial crisis subsided in 2009, the incomes of most households in Western societies stagnated, creating the widest wealth gap since the Great Depression. It’s a story of big banks, big companies, and big homes for the 1 percent, with close to nothing left for the rest. That’s one of the features of our twenty-first-century economy, and it speaks to a trend of centralization, not decentralization.
Yet, at the same time, signs of decentralization are clear, mostly on account of new technologies that have given people both the tools and the motivation to extract themselves from dependence on those big, centralized institutions. For example, take energy. The modern utility, with its power plants and transmission lines, has a state-mandated license to operate; it is subject to state controls on pricing; it is a private enterprise that serves a public need. But it’s increasingly possible for homeowners to configure their properties with enough solar- and wind-power capacity to significantly reduce reliance on utilities or take themselves off the grid entirely. As former U.S. vice president Al Gore put it in an essay published by Rolling Stone in the summer of 2014, “We are witnessing the beginning of a massive shift to a new energy-distribution model—from the ‘central station’ utility-grid model that goes back to the 1880s to a ‘widely distributed’ model with rooftop solar cells, on-site and grid battery storage, and microgrids.”
Beyond energy, many other industries are experiencing shifts toward decentralized models that bypass middlemen gatekeepers: tourist accommodation without hotels, driver-owned taxi services without central dispatch services, e-marketplaces for neighborly tool rentals that take business away from hardware stores. This is happening even without the use of cryptocurrencies or blockchains. People have figured out that if they have idle assets, they can lend them to people who need them, while those people have in turn equally realized that they don’t need to go through expensive central distribution points to find those assets. This new system is called several things: the sharing economy, the mesh economy, the collaborative economy. Got some extra computing power sitting on your desktop? Share it with those who need it. Got a car sitting idle in your driveway? Share that. Got a big idea? Share it online and raise the money online to fund it. Business symbols of this era so far include the personal-apartment rental site Airing, the crowd funding site Kick starter, the peer-to-peer lending network Lending Club, and the taxi services controlled by individual car owners Uber and Lyft.
In some respects these new business models are extensions of a process that began far earlier with the advent of the Internet. While no self-respecting bitcoiner would ever describe Google or Facebook as decentralized institutions, not with their corporate-controlled servers and vast databases of customers’ personal information, these giant Internet firms of our day got there by encouraging peer-to-peer and middleman-free activities. GoogleAds allowed small businesses to bypass big media organizations and to market more directly to prospective customers; Facebook allowed people to organically form groups, communities, and associations that weren’t tied down by geography or social and national structures; Twitter meant people could design their own news feeds.
The importance of decentralization goes beyond the emergence of new business models or even that people are finding ways to save a few bucks here or make a few there. By unleashing this DIY approach to commerce, changes in technology and culture are leading to new methods of interacting, both socially and economically. Profit and nonprofit organizations alike are now eschewing vertical hierarchies in favor of more horizontal, democratic lines of command. (For a visual representation of how this plays out, compare the open-planned office layouts in the contemporaneous TV show Silicon Valley with the closed offices of the sixties-era Mad Men.) Much like the open-source-software development teams that look after bitcoin and countless other computing projects, communities are being formed—mostly online—with no titular head and no central hub. They are held together by the commonly recognized convention that the consensus of the crowd trumps everything else.
Is a clash building between these two movements, the corporate world’s concentration of wealth and power, and Silicon Valley’s re-empowerment of the individual? Perhaps these trends can continue to coexist if the decentralizing movement remains limited to areas of the economy that don’t bleed into the larger sectors that Big Business dominates. But that’s not what the proponents of this technology foresee—especially those in the cryptocurrency sector. They believe that decentralization is just getting started and that the centralized economic and political establishments—even governments and nation-states, those ultimate centralized loci of power—will be disrupted by it. If so, cryptocurrencies and blockchain technology could ride that wave triumphantly. A phrase from Mastercoin’s David Johnston that some in the cryptocurrency community call Johnston’s law could come true: “Everything that can be decentralized will be decentralized.”
This especially optimistic view of cryptocurrency technology’s potential runs up against the many obstacles that it faces. But if we set aside cryptocurrencies for a moment, it’s hard not to believe that the decentralizing trend has momentum. When we stand that up against the entrenchment of Wall Street’s and Washington’s concentrated power in the postcrisis period, these twin trends start to look less like parallel movements and more like two trains on a collision course. We may well be on the verge of a profound societal upheaval, perhaps the most significant since the sixteenth century, when, in the second half of the Renaissance, banking and the nation-state established themselves as the central forces of power around which the world’s monetary and economic systems would revolve.
When faced with these kinds of disruptive challenges from new technology and new ways of organizing society, businesses and institutions that occupy the center—those that represent the economic and political establishment—have three choices. One is to just ignore the new idea, to dismiss the new idea and carry on as normal. A second is to fight it, perhaps through political lobbying, or by using advertising campaigns or smear campaigns to destroy the nascent threat through negative associations in the public eye. A third is to try to adapt to it, to incorporate, co-opt, or otherwise work with the new technology or concept.
Silicon Valley innovators will frequently warn against the perils of the first approach, but history suggests it’s often not a bad idea to let a new technology fall victim to its own hype.Contributed by: <Business name withheld in the interest of readers>

Crypto News & Analysis

The government of Switzerland has announced that it plans to tokenize their national currency, the Swiss Franc. A cryptocurrency that is backed by a fiat currency is referred to as a stablecoin. The perception is that a tokenized fiat currency is less volatile in price swings than its purely digital counterpart. The stablecoin proposed by Switzerland will not be the first of its kind. There is a stablecoin backed by the United State Dollar, the Tether , the United States Dollar Token (USDT). The Russian government has proposed the creation of a stablecoin backed by the Russian Ruble, the Crypto Ruble. And the government of Venezuela has also proposed the creation of a stablecoin backed by their reserves of oil, the Petro.
The Venezuelan stablecoin and the Russian stablecoin have more of a presence in the news media then on the cryptocurrency exchanges. Despite the economic woes of the Venezuelan economy the Petro has not lived up to its hype. It has been reported by several major news sources that cryptocurrencies like Bitcoin and Dash are where the people of Venezuela have flocked to, in order to preserve what’s left of their devalued savings. The Venezuelan Bolivar was devalued by 95% in an effort to counteract hyperinflation. The Russian Crypto Ruble proposal has stalled in the legislative process.
Switzerland may not be the first nation to attempt to issue a digital token backed by a fiat currency, but it may very well be the first to successfully create one. A stablecoin model for others to emulate or perhaps become the dominant fiat backed token in the world.
The odds of success for the Swiss are much higher than their predecessors. The Swiss economy is not shrouded with instability. The Swiss economy lays claim to having the highest level of nominal wealth per adult, along with the eighth highest per capita gross domestic product globally. The Swiss Franc has gained 75% more purchasing power compared to the USD over the last 50 years. Switzerland is the world’s largest importer and exporter of gold. Although it is not in the headlines very much there is also a King of the Netherlands, Willem-Alexander. These attributes about Switzerland just exemplify the level of stability it maintains compared to the economies of the prior stablecoin issuers, Tether, The Petro, and the Crypto Ruble.
Tether has been surrounded by rumors of inaccurate accounting practices and market manipulation. The Swiss token proposal guarantees monthly, transparent audits for its investors. It’s not only the stability of the Swiss economy that makes this proposed token interesting, it’s the timing of it. Geneva is well known for its unique brand of tourism. Switzerland has a reputation of being the place where wealthy people go to visit their money. Right now, digital financial transactions are still slower than fiat currency transactions domestically and internationally. Why would a country that has such a dominant presence in international finance move to a vehicle that, for all intents and purposes, is substandard to what is already in place? The answer to that question may be related to Ripple’s (XRP) latest announcement.
Ripple (XRP) has announced that the launch of their xRapid payment platform will be very soon, possibly within the next 30 days. xRapid claims it will be faster, cheaper, and more accurate because of the blockchain technology behind it. xRapid can effectively knock SWIFT, the reigning international money transfer king, off of their throne. Some analysts feel that SWIFT has already raised the white flag and has adopted the can’t beat them join them posture, predicting an alliance may be forged. And now enter the world’s safe haven for money and money transfers, Switzerland. It appears as though a tidy arrangement may be in the making. The developments are still unfolding and XRP’s value is rising. These events deserve attention. The 21st Money Team will keep you informed.

Forex News & Analysis

The United States Dollar / Swiss Franc (USD/CHF) pairing helps us understand the historical relationship between two economic powerhouses. The US still reigns supreme as the world’s number one economy and Switzerland is the world’s Banking capital.
USD/CHF Chart Courtesy of Tradingview
The chart clearly demonstrates how the USD has lost value against the CHF over the last thirty years. But it shows the stability of both currencies against each other in recent years. That is somewhat reassuring as tokenized fiat currencies are emerging. The USD Token, Tether (USDT) is already in existence and the Swiss have announced plans to issue a tokenized version of the CHF as well. Will the USD be able to maintain its stability against the CHF in the crypto market? The USD has certainly maintained its value against the CHF within a few cents over the last few years. But the crypto market has a technological X-factor which could add volatility to a once stable relationship.
Global boundaries are disappearing. Brexit can actually become a reality that will change the economic landscape of the European Union (EU). Bear in mind, Switzerland is still part of the EU. As we enter the digital age of finance will these two currencies still reign supreme? The Swiss franc has a lot more monetary muscle than the USD. The US holds the population with the largest appetite for goods and services worldwide. We’ll see how these two economies fit inside the digitized financial jigsaw puzzle that is taking shape.
The United States Dollar /Bitcoin (USD/BTC) pairing saw the dollar lose value against the crypto giant. The dollar began the week exchanging at $6,491 /1 Bitcoin. The dollar ended the week exchanging at $6729 / 1 Bitcoin losing 3.67% against Bitcoin by the weeks end.
The USD index (.DXY) compares the USD to 6 globally dominant currencies. The USD lost ground when compared to its global counterparts towards the end of the week. The .DXY index recorded a value of 94.5 at the beginning of the week. The Index closed at 94.00 recording a 0.532% loss in value by the week’s end. The Mexican Peso held an advantage over the USD throughout the week. The Mexican Peso (MXN) began the week exchanging at 18.83823 / 1. The MXN closed the week at 18.8810 up 0.227%. While the Japanese Yen (JPY) maintained a slim advantage over the dollar at the close of the week as well. The JPY ended the week marginally stronger, pairing with the USD at 111.823 / 1 at the beginning of the week and closing the week recording an exchange rate of 112.748 a 0.827% increase in value.Crypto Futures News & Analysis
Bitcoin continues to remain above its charted lower line of resistance. The crypto trading community is eagerly anticipating what will be the catalyst for the next bull run. The ETF conversation will not be a factor until 2019 when the Securities and Exchange Commission will review new or pending ETF applications. What could possibly be on the horizon for Bitcoin? Why is it able to maintain this support level near $6,200?
Chart Courtesy of TradingView Prepared by: The 21st Money Team
One of the reasons could be that key investors and intuitive traders recognize that globalization is on the horizon. And it appears as though Bitcoin will be an integral part of the economic globalization process.
A recent statement from the Chinese Premier, Li Keqiang, reinforces this realization of our modern financial era. Premier Li says,
“We are now standing at a crossroads, a crossroads facing a choice between globalization or de-globalization. We are encouraged to see the trend of globalization continue to forge ahead at its own pace. ……Globalization has presented China, and all countries around the world, with tremendous development opportunities. In the age of globalization a new round of Industrial Revolution has come into being.”
The new industrial revolution, is the phrase that really sums it all up. Blockchain technology and all of its applications are still being explored. The full potential of the technology is still unknown. What is known? Bitcoin is at the center of this new industrial revolution, that’s a fact. Bitcoin is the cornerstone of digital currency. Whenever Bitcoin nears its lower threshold of resistance and bounces off that line, it is clear that investors and traders share the same mindset as Premier Li. Globalization is unstoppable.Crypto Stocks & Analysis
There is a unique relationship between blockchain technology and silicon valley stocks. Buy-in opportunities that become present in the cryptocurrency market are mirrored in silicon valley stocks. Silicon valley adds depth to computing power and speed to the processing of data available from the internet. Those two factors contribute greatly to the functionality of blockchain technology and its integration into the business models of the 21st century.
The silicon valley stock that has caught the attention of The 21st Money Team is NVIDIA Corporation (NVDA). It appears as though the growth of the blockchain and NVDA are interlaced. Timely purchases of NVDA stock can potentially lead to astronomical gains as this technological innovation factory helps the world go around with state of the art graphic cards and chipsets.
NVIDIA Corporation (NVDA) Chart courtesy of Yahoo Finance
Purchases of NVDA during the lows of the cryptocurrency market have given those insightful investors a lot to be happy about. In August of 2016 after the Bitfinex exchange hack NVDA was trading near $61 per share. Now NVDA is trading at $266 per share a 336% increase in value since August of 2016.

Crypto News & Analysis

It’s ironic how the Chinese government restricts its citizens from engaging with cryptocurrencies, and at the same time Chinese companies like Bitmain dominate the industry. The Chinese government has blocked access to 124 foreign cryptocurrency exchanges that offer their services to Chinese citizens. VPNs have helped Chinese traders of Cryptos get around the government imposed restrictions.
The Cryptocurrency Exchanges have also found ways to circumvent the ban by relaunching themselves with new domain names that are registered in other countries outside of China. The government has begun to intensify their scrutiny of foreign websites that have home pages in the Chinese language. They have also censured cryptocurrency media outlets, claiming that they were manipulating the crypto markets. The popular WeChat App has blocked all crypto and blockchain media accounts in order to comply with the government’s directives.Cryptos have come to another professional sport franchise. A baseball team is now a participant in the crypto world. The Los Angeles Dodgers now have the distinction of being the first sports team to be involved in a crypto giveaway. They are offering their fans a free download of a digital bobblehead. The first 40,000 fans that walk through the turnstiles of Dodger Stadium on the 21st of September will receive the gift. The Dodgers will face the San Diego Padres that day.
The fans will have 3 bobblehead collectable characters to choose from, pitchers Kenley Hanson, and Clayton Kershaw, or third baseman Justin Turner. Dodgers Executive Vice President and Chief Marketing Officer, Lon Rosen expressed his elation about the giveaway this way,
“We’re excited for our first-ever Crypto giveaway, and (the opportunity) to explore an entirely new marketplace with our fanbase. We hope this piques the interest of Dodger fans, and will help launch a new age of collectables and promotions.”
Every fan that participates in the giveaway will receive a card with a private code and a set of instructions. They will be led to a webpage where a digital bobblehead token, randomly chosen, can be unlocked and put in the participant’s Ether wallet.Forex News & Analysis

The line has been drawn and the the lower resistance level of Bitcoin has been tested again. Traders and investors have been able to log the levels of Bitcoin trades that have given credence to the lower resistance level of support. Not only that, fibonacci averages applied to Bitcoin’s trading levels have shown consistency as well.
We all wish we had the crystal ball that could tell us where the Bitcoin market will be everyday, but there is no such thing. What is available for investors and traders are the laws of averages. And the hope of the most likely outcomes. This is the fifth instance of Bitcoin bouncing along its low resistance level this year. When Bitcoin rebounds off the low it may not be as high as some dream, but it is substantial. A $1,700 swing in any market oozes with trading opportunities for buying and selling. If the laws of averages hold true for Bitcoin, the graph above illustrates a pattern that could be useful for both long term and short term investors. Although Bitcoins rebounds from its low level of resistance have decreased in size, they fall in line with the fibonacci averages.
Over the last few weeks rumors of an ETF application being approved by the Securities and Exchange Commission ignited a short lived bull run. Now technology and world events are so intertwined its difficult to imagine what will increase or decrease the value of Bitcoin. Investors and traders may be inclined to use the law of averages to navigate the stormy seas of Bitcoin price fluctuations.Crypto Stocks & Analysis

With ICOs going through regulatory growing pains, with fraudulent feedback from the mainstream media and low success rate, we must strive to find more satisfactory means of funding blockchain innovation that are more legitimate. The U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission (SEC) hearings are changing the future of how cryptocurrencies work at the intersection of more stringent regulations.
If blockchain startups can have more credible ICO’s it doesn’t really matter what they are called. This also opens up the floodgates for companies and new projects in virtually any field to tap into how ICO’s work backed by tangible assets.
Would be issuers of “utility” crypto tokens can be expected to encounter high costs, middling raises and regulatory risk. But there is a solution for the beginning Bitcoin Wallet Development were magic. Young projects without a legal entity, domicile or identifiable management team were able to raise millions of dollars. They promised to build infrastructure that would unseat corporate titans without so much as saying hello to regulators and taxing authorities. Smash the banks, change the world and bring about some sort of libertarian crypto utopia Obviously that hasn’t happened.
Regulators are increasingly cracking down and taking interest in the blockchain space. While governments vary in their response to blockchain projects, it is clear that they will respond and that they will hold projects accountable to their laws. “Utility” token offerings designed as an end run around securities laws are unlikely to hold up, with the SEC say openly that they haven’t seen a true “utility” yet. In this space, just about every project is likely in violation of securities laws.
But there is an exit, a way forward that’s better for projects and investors and helps relieve the threat of government interference: Security Token Offerings (STOs)
Having said that security cryptocurrency tokens have the potential to become the go-to form of funding for more established startups and for companies that want to tokenize their securities offering instead of listing shares on a stock exchange.
Security ICOs will likely become a real competitor to traditional IPOs as the costs for an ICO remain cheaper and as more investors realize the advantages of digital tokens over “real shares”.
